What is the data format for the audio device on the SPARCstation? I have tried straight binary and offset binary (most significant bit being the sign bit). But they don't seem to be correct. Any information would be helpful. Thanks. Edmund Lai Department of Electrical & Electronic Engineering The University of Western Australia.

The SS1 audio is in uLAW (really Mu-LAW) format. It is a method of compressing analog waveforms into 8-bit samples. I previously posted a program to convert MAC style files (excess-128 samples) into uLAW format for the SS1. It's called sound2sun, and is available from the Rice archive server.
